Tribute to my favourite Dota hero:Yurnero the Juggernaut

this story is modified from my fantasies when i first play dota n was obsessed with juggernaut's omnislash n thought perserverance was a godly item. needless to say,my juggernaut went round e map looking for e item perserverance n got slaughtered many times,b4 i learnt how to get perserverance,b4 boots...i love juggernaut a lot.i really do.. even when my friends told me how a beginner should not use such heroes,i did not mind, as long as i was rewarded with getting to perform e OM-NI_SLASH! ladies n gentlemen, welcome to my world of juggernauts..



Once upon a time,in a small northen village of Kalimdor,a baby juggernaut was born. He was looked after by his grandparents KOTL and CM who loved him very much n took great care of him. He was called Yurnero,soon to be known as e greatest hero of all times.
It was at this time whereby scourge mages were often sent by the Lich King to haunt the villagers for protection fees. Yurnero at the tender age of one,already learnt the art of spinning without been affected by spells and chased them away. The mages tired out eventually after they realised Yurnero had unlimited mana spinning thanks to his grandparents. Even the loan shark leader DP could not handle him n had to run away with her magical bats.
The lich king was angered tat the sentinels dared to defy his enforced laws and sent his best assasin SA and hired his contracted bounty hunter BH to hunt him down. Young Yurnero could not handle them and was cluelessly spinning at the wrong places,while been tactically backstabbed. Fortune was on his side as he became mysteriously invisible in e forest and thus managed to escape. To date,noone ever could solve e mystery y he became invisible suddenly near the trees.
Yurnero,injured and vulnerable,sought solace at his uncle's tarvern. His uncle AM was a v nice blind man who was one of e elite guards of e sentinels at its peak b4 e dark times. Yurnero asked:"Uncle AM,y is it tat i cannot c my enemies which are haunting me? how can i see better?" Uncle AM replied:"erm,let me think how can this old one help.. e problem with u,young Yurnero is tat u see too much,n feel too little. fighting a war is never abt fighting ur opps,it's abt feeling urself and understanding ur surroundings to e peak of perfection...Only then,can u feel e air n feel e foreign matters in e air around u" Uncle AM then took out a gem n gave the juggernaut intensive training with it. By the end of 2 months, young Yurnero finally learnt how to sense e disturbance in e force around him,n trusted his fighting skills totally on his instincts n his essense.
The jug went b n sought revenge on BH n SA. They were totally dominated by him n were defenceless. BH n SA went b to e Lich King n complained:"My Lord,it is not fair.We r most valued for our invisibility,and yet, this youngster juz c through us like water.i am sorry,but we cannot be of service to u anymore,now tat we have lost our invisibility."
e Lich King was infuriated and sent his top henchman the SK. SK was powerful because he had 2 lives n his 2nd life usually will kill any opps who dared stand in his way. yurnero got a shock when SK merely revived from his spin. Yurnero had to cool down n started retreating..However,SK chased him for 3 days n the jug was cornered in e corner of e map.Yurnero,then a teenager recalled his trainings in his early days,whereby he had to sit down at e fountain n do nothing but meditate. it was at this hour of need,tat he finally understood wat his trainings were for-to do nothing is so tat he will not be reliant on his spins,but rather fighting with his own skills n beliefs. Having achieved enlightenment,he closed his eyes n do wat his mediation over e years guide him to do wat he excels best...it was e OM-NI-SLASH! with tat, e 3 hit combo killed SK's 2 lives. Jug taunted SK n said" 3 is better than 2! u r doomed.." SK then said"u will not kill me pls..i am your father..." SK then took out his mask,n jug realised he was e man who used to play with him when he was young. Tears flowed out,n SK took e chance to escape.
Our dear jug was not naive. He knew SK has been mind altered n will still came b for him. He hence practised on his new SENSATIONAL omnislash.Jug was a fast learner n soon increased his omni to a 5 hit combo. Meanwhile,SK went to farm for a weapon called MANTA. with tat,SK planned to have 6(3x2) images to counter jug's 5 hit combo. SK eventually hunted jug down,but he got defeated again..OM-huat-NI-huat-SLASH!..Jug screamed in victory"while 6 is more than 5,5 is more than 4! Manta has cool down..ur ignorance will be ur downfall.." With tat,e evil SK was perished.
Jug was not fast enough though,to stop a droid from sliding in n stealing e MANTA b4 teleporting away. e droid was later known to be Tinker,n it created history by defeating one of e wildest monsters called Roshan n claimed e ageis. Tinker was programmed by e Lich King to hunt down jug. This time,jug gave up hope for Tinker had 6 images this time,as a robot has no cooldown. Jug,in defeat,went into isolation for years.
Fortunately for e sentinels,our hero stumbled onto a secret shop. Next to e billard place,there was a lanshop. yurnero took up IT courses and,with the help of technology, mastered his omni-slash to the fullest! he has perfected hsi omnislash to a 7 hit combo! During e course, he also fell in love with the secret shop sales lady,lina and they got married. Lina loved him v much too,n gave him a butterfly pin.
Enthusiastically,our now adult Yurnero went b n chased Tinker away from e village. E villagers cheered in joy,for their saviour the juggernaut king has returned! Yurnero's 7 hit combo was juz enought to defeat e roshan slayer. huat-OM-huat-NI-huat-SLASH-huat! e villagers celebrated in joy at their release,but yurnero was not satisfied. He wanted the scourge to leave e village once n for all.
However,reality is tat age has caught up with our no longer young hero here,n his meditation has also let him noe of his limits of his powers. The lich king was truely invincible,for he has 9 lives. But heroes r defined not by their powers,but by their character and their love for their nation. Yurnero, with the most threatening but calm voice he can master, hissed to e Lich King:"Dreaded enemy,e time has come,my omni slash is boundless in powers n has grown more since e slay of e TINKER. i challenge u to mortal combat one on one! come here now with ur 9 lives!"
The Lich King laughed,n laughed n laughed for a long time,then stared at jug, Yurnero was not affected n continued to smile sweetly at the scourge war lord. The lich king,suddenly with disguise did something he never did b4.....
the Lich King(level 25) has left the realm of Kalimdor.
